Chapter 70: Golden Eyes
And as soon as Lorien touched it, the small silver ball disappeared, instantly merging into his body
Following its disappearance, Lorien could feel that some sort of mysterious transformation was happening to him
Those changes were subtle yet comprehensive, there was no place in his body that wasn't altered
'Uggghhh...'
Feeling the weird sensation all over, Lorien almost groaned out loud, contrary to what some may think, this transformation isn't painful in the least bit, it is actually very pleasant
This continued for nearly 15 minutes until no further changes occurred; Feeling this, Lorien stood up and stretched lazily
'This feels great!'
Raising his hand, the ring on his finger suddenly transformed into a sword
Of course, Lorien wasn't about to do something crazy like directly cutting off his hand to see if it would regenerate, he just wanted to do a small test to check his recovery speed
Putting the blade on his left hand, He moved it slightly creating a somewhat big wound, but it didn't stay for long as by the time he moved his sword away the wound had already healed itself only leaving some blood stains as proof of its prior existence
Seeing this, Lorien nodded in satisfaction as he erased those blood stains and turned the sword back into a ring
After testing his regeneration, he wanted to test his life span to see if it has increased, but this is not something he could easily test so he decided to just put it aside for now
Absorbing the first 'seed', Lorien turned his attention to the other one
Taking a deep breath to calm down, Lorien waved his hand causing the silver 'ball' to float towards him
Looking at this small 'ball', he raised his slightly shaking hand and he held it, this caused the [Physical Talent Awakening] 'Seed' to instantly disappear, similar to what happened with the previous one
And with its disappearance, another bout of transformation ensued; The moment it entered his body, some sort of chain reaction occurred
Lorien could feel many subtle changes happening inside of his body, but that wasn't the main focus
He could feel that the center of this mutation was actually his eyes, and contrary to the previous one it was very painful
"Ahhhh!!!"
Covering his eyes, Lorien tried his best not to scream but some painful but muffled cries still exited his mouth
He could feel that something was awakening, this new ability was actually altering his eyes, it seems that it is actually an ocular one
Thankfully for him, this pain didn't last long as it soon subsided and got replaced with a pleasant and comfortable sensation
And as this was happening, his eyes started giving off some sort of mysterious power, this power was spreading around with Lorien's eyes as the origin
But as soon as this mysterious power appeared, a pair of golden-colored eyes suddenly snapped open...but those eyes weren't actually Lorien's
With their gaze focused on Lorien, the owner of those eyes started observing the situation
'The power of time...'
'Oh... So it's just some physical ability, moreover, the power of time isn't the core of the ability, so it doesn't matter...'
'Hmmm...Let me help you then!'
After understanding what was happening, this being immediately made a decision
And following it, the Mysterious Golden Orb hidden inside of Lorien suddenly started shimmering as it sent waves of golden energy into Lorien's eyes
This Mysterious Golden Orb is Lorien's 'Cheat' the one that allowed him to Awaken his Talent and Travel different worlds
And with it sending power into Lorien's eyes, a new round of transformation started
Its objective is to improve the physical ability Lorien awakened while keeping it under the category of 'dream ability' and not allow it to become a true 'time ability'
Meanwhile just as Lorien's ability was trasforming, the being that was watching him suddenly turned her eyes towards the house
'Huh? Destiny type Existence Talent??'
Feeling this, she immediately turned her attention there, but after observing for a while she finally looked away pleased
'It's just Doom, a sub-division of destiny so it doesn't matter...'
By now, Lorien's transformation had already finished, so after making sure that everything was okay, those pair of eyes closed again as their owner was hidden somewhere
But Lorien was unaware of any of this as he opened his eyes slowly and looked around a bit disoriented
His golden eyes felt very different from before, previously, even though they looked good, they didn't have this mysterious feel they possess now
Clearing his mind, Lorien immediately started checking his new power
And thankfully, He didn't have to work hard to figure out what it was as a 'message' silently appeared in his mind, briefly 'explaining' it
Digesting the message, Lorien's eyes widened in shock, he didn't expect such an absurd ability
'This??!!! How is this possible??!'
He didn't expect this seed to have this sort of potential, even after perfecting it himself, he didn't anticipate it to reach this level
But what he didn't know was that without external help, this ability wouldn't have reached this level, even if something similar to it appeared, it would have been very flawed
After all, this ability was perfected using the power of an [Authority] level being
And if it wasn't for this entity being afraid of changing the 'nature' of the ability, it wouldn't have just stopped where it did
This ability can be called an ocular one as it allows Lorien to 'Look' at the Past, Present, and Future...Basically [Clairvoyance]
But sadly for Lorien, he is currently only able to look at the 'Future', as for the 'Past' and 'Present' parts he is unable to do so for now as they are now just a concept
This is similar to how his [Regeneration] could now regenerate his physique and has the concepts for Soul and Existence regeneration
So all this does is just give this ability 'potential' not immediate power
To awaken the ability to 'look' at the 'present' and 'past' and tap into this potential, all Lorien needs to do is to grow stronger, it's as simple as that
But even after discovering this Lorien wasn't bothered much as the ability to look at the 'future' is absurd on its own
First of all, he is now able to trigger those 'Clairvoyant Dreams' whenever he wants, moreover he could even specify the target, this could be either a person, event, or even choose to let it be random
Not to mention that he could also specify the time period and limit the location
And this is only the surface, as this ability to 'look' at the 'future' also has its combat uses as it allows him to predict the short-term future
Meaning he could look at what will happen 1,2,3...10 seconds in the future, which is very useful in combat
But sadly as strong as this ability to 'look' at the 'future' is it requires a lot of energy, so Lorien won't be able to abuse it as much as he would love to
But it is still very useful nonetheless, especially combined with his own [Dream/Reality] Ability
'HAHAHAHA!!'
'My work didn't go to waste!'
